BRAVO!! BRAVO!!

The citizens of Arizona are mighty pissed off at the Feds doing nothing about illegals so they are making their own laws.

And all I can say is, “It’s about time!”

I like the fact that they have a provision for fining government workers who fail to report illegal use of government programs by illegals!

It’s time we start kicking these leeches out of this country.  And don’t give me any shit about them doing jobs we don’t want to do.  We kick their asses out, keep them out (shooting them if need be) and those businesses relying on this forced labor trade will then be obligated to pay more money to its workers.  And, NO! Prices WILL NOT skyrocket!  You know why?  Because as soon as labor costs go up, guess what American industry will do?

Come on.  Think a little bit.

They’ll be forced to find better ways to do the job.  Or we may be forced to accept vegetables and fruit that aren’t perfect.

But change will come and we will be better for it.

What happened To The “YOUTH VOTE?”

The folks who put together “Best of the Web” hypothesize thusly as to where the “youth vote” went:

Gee, what might’ve happened to all the young voters? Well, consider this: You’re not allowed to vote unless you’ve passed your 18th birthday. In order to have any birthdays at all, you have to have been born. And over the past 30 years or so, many Americans have ended up not being born.

About.com lists the number of abortions in the U.S. each year starting in 1973, “based on assumptions by the Alan Guttmacher Institute.” If we add up the numbers from 1975-86, we come up with approximately 17.5 million missing eligible voters between 18 and 29 years old. Exit polls found that voters this age who were born went for Kerry over Bush, 54% to 45%, while Bush had a majority in all other age groups. If it’s true that women who have abortions tend to be more liberal than those who don’t, then the unborn 18- to 29-year-olds likely would have favored the Democrat even more heavily.

Roe v. Wade, the 1973 decision mandating legal abortion nationwide, was written by Justice Harry Blackmun, a Nixon appointee. Perhaps somewhere old Tricky Dick is smiling at how his judicial legacy helped the Republicans.

Happy Stuff

Our allies are coming out and thanking us for re-electing Bush.

American allies in Asia hailed the re-election of President Bush as a victory for the global war on terror and expressed hope his second term would help defuse nuclear tensions on the Korean Peninsula.

Pakistan, Australia, Japan, Indonesia, South Korea, Australia and the Philippines all offered congrats.

The whiney European bastards (who we should NEVER forgive) made noises about how we need to bridge differences.  I say we can begin that process when they get on their knees and ask our forgiveness for their stupid actions the past three years.  Then they can all agree to forgive Iraq’s debt, agree to provide soldiers to defend the Iraqi people against terrorists, and agree to return all the money they looted from the Iraqis.  When they are done with that their women can stay on their knees and give us all blow jobs while they’re at it.  Ladies, I’ll let you decide what you’d like European men to do for you.

One raghead shopkeeper had this to say:

“I fear he (Bush) will take actions that could cause the relationship between Muslims and the West to worsen. This will make the world a more dangerous place”

Speaking of “cowboys and muslims” maybe we need to start playing that game on college campuses.

Now here’s a guy that understands what’s going on.  Our pal, Pooty-Poot!!

I know I am very happy to see this and am sure many of you are, too!

A nice summary of some new faces in the Congress and another of the reasons why I am so happy and wearing a shit-eating grin just thinking about our victory!  (Just skip over the Democrats!)

Here’s Peggy Noonan’s take on the victory.  She wants us to savor it.  Some tasty bits:

Savor: George W. Bush is the first president to win more than 50% of the popular vote since 1988. (Bill Clinton failed to twice; Mr. Bush failed to last time and fell short of a plurality by half a million.) The president received more than 59 million votes, breaking Ronald Reagan’s old record of 54.5 million. Mr. Bush increased his personal percentages in almost every state in the union. He carried the Catholic vote and won 42% of the Hispanic vote and 24% of the Jewish vote (up from 19% in 2000.)

Savor: The Democrats have lost their leader in the Senate, Tom Daschle.

Savor: The elites of Old Europe are depressed.

Savor: George Soros cannot buy a presidential election.

Savor: “Volunteers” who are bought and paid for cannot beat volunteers who come from the neighborhood, church, workplace and reading group.

Savor: A ragtag band of more than a million Republican volunteers who fought like Washington’s troops at Valley Forge beat the paid Hessians of King George III’s army.

Read the rest of her article. Please.  You will not regret it.

A Message From The Chief

I just received this e-mail from President Bush. I’m sure all the Bush/Cheney campaign Team Leaders received this as well. I want to personally pass this along to all of you and to extend my thanks to every one of you great people who helped us re-elect President George W. Bush. You have all done me proud and I thank you all from the bottom of my heart. I’m sure Vilmar joins me in this. He will probably tell you so tomorrow. For now, the poor little fellow is collapsed from exhaustion and sacked out after working all day at the polls Tuesday. I thank him for the effort he has put into this blog. It has taken a great effort from both of us to get to this point and Vilmar has carried more than his share of the load. He has been tireless in his efforts and I appreciate him and his work more than words can tell.

We’ve come a long way since this blog started in January. Our first month saw 600 visitors. We saw that many before 9:00am today. In fact we broke our single-day record today with over 1800 unique visitors today alone. In October we had over 34,000 unique visitors. The conservative movement is growing in this country and we are proud to be a part of it. We owe it all to you. Vilmar and I want to simply say .... thank you, thank you, thank you.

And now, I’ll shut up and let the Commander In Chief talk ....

Crossroads

Pay attention, my fellow Americans. I have a tale of decisions and the perils of taking “the path less travelled ....

For the last four years, the President has been, for the most part, an extremely unpopular man. The country is split into two factions and one faction hates the President with an unbridled passion, a blinding hatred borne out of not only differences of opinion but in most cases, just an extreme distaste for the man, himself. We are approaching an election to decide if the President should remain in office or should be replaced. We find ourselves engaged in a great war to preserve the country and protect America from destruction. There are forces both within and without our shores who are doing everything they can to influence this election. On the one hand, we have a decidedly stubborn, honest, reliable, steadfast Republican President who has rallied the country in a time of great strife. Our military forces are struggling with a strong, determined enemy. On the other hand, also running for President, we have a distinguished, decorated Democrat war hero who has led a bitter campaign of mud-slinging and name-calling, who has accused the President of not knowing how to handle the war because the President never had to fight for this country as he, the war hero did. He has accused the President of misleading the American people, lying to the American people and fighting the wrong war. He has promised to bring the war to a conclusion, even if it means an armistice with the enemy to be brokered with the assistance of European countries.

The country is at a crossroads and a decision must be made tomorrow by the voters. We, the People must decide whether to stay the course and fight this enemy because we know what is right and the President is the right man for the job. Or else we can just vote for the other man, and back away from this war, letting the chips fall where they may. We can abrogate our duty to defend America and just let history decide whether we did the right thing. A hundred forty years from now, no one will care what we decided. We’ll all be dead and the world will have changed no matter what we decide. We are at the crossroads and must choose one way or the other. May God have mercy on all of us.

Doesn’t it sound familiar? You bet it does. Except we’re a hundred forty years distant from that citizen and his perilous decision and history has provided a clearer vision of the consequences of that decision. A decision that, thankfully, he and his fellow countrymen decided correctly. For the record, Lincoln was running against General George McClellan, a great hero of the Mexican War who proved to be incompetent in the Civil War. Lincoln fired him and McClellan sought revenge by running against Lincoln in 1864. The people of the United States, in the 1864 election, decided that it was a far, far better thing to do to fight the war to the bitter end in order to preserve the Union and abolish slavery. I think they chose wisely. I know all of you do too. Yes, I include Liberals and Democrats in that. No one would question whether Lincoln should have remained in office to finish the job he started in 1860. One hundred forty years down the trail, we can comfortably look back and say, “they did the right thing when the country came to the crossroads”.

Once again, my fellow Americans, we find ourselves at the same kind of crossroads. 1864 was not the last time we came up to this kind of fork in the road. It happened in 1916 and in 1944. Maybe one day, I’ll settle you all down in front of my fireplace and tell you all about them and how, when the chips were down, most Americans proved to be honest, thoughtful people who understood the enormity of the decision they were facing at their crossroads. Now, we find ourselves at another crossroads. The only difference is it is our crossroads this time. We do not have the advantage of being able to look back on 2004 from a hundred forty years in the future. We can only make the best decision for ourselves and our children that we can with our God-given sense of right and wrong and more than a little common sense.

It’s your decision .. and mine. You already know who I plan to vote for. I have an obligation to my children, their children, your children .... and all our grandchildren. We absolutely must get this one right, my friends. There is too much at stake here .... not least of which is what some citizen writing in 2144 will have to say about the world we left him. He may be at the next crossroads and need some help deciding. Shouldn’t we try to give him an example of patriotic, honorable men and women who had the intelligence to just do the right thing at the right time for all the right reasons?

For the record, in the 1864 election Lincoln won in a landslide by a 212-21 margin in the Electoral College. McClellan carried only Kentucky, Delaware and New Jersey. Within six months after the election, the Civil War was over, the slaves had been freed .... and the healing began.

Carry these thoughts to bed with you tonight and as you go to the polls tomorrow. The decision is up to you. Which path is the correct path .... here at the crossroads?

Where’s Vilmar?  Mission Revealed.  Mystery Solved.

Yesterday Allan left you with a teaser about my disappearance.  So where was I? 

Get closer boys and girls and I’ll tell you a little story that’ll warm the cockles of your hearts.

A couple of weeks ago I got into a discussion at this bookstore I volunteer in with this woman who was an undecided voter.  I lashed out at her by saying, “hey, at this late juncture if you do not know who to vote for, do us all a favor and stay at home November 2nd.”

A few days before that I had a similar conversation with another woman at another place I volunteer in.  She was a bit taken aback by my candid statement.  I placed before her the theoretical situation of having to hire someone for a job wherein one applicant has experience but made a few mistakes yet the other had nothing to show for the past 30 years but had lots of “plans” the substance of which he would not divulge to you.  I then asked her to choose one.

She chose the former and felt more convinced to vote for Bush.  I still advised her to stay home, though.  A friend asked me why I had not encouraged her to vote for the President.  I explained that if I were able to “swing” her so quickly, what’s to prevent someone from convincing her to “swing” the other way the day before the election?  As far a I am concerned, these people can’t be trusted.  They have no conviction. 

I firmly believe that people who sit on fences end up with fence poles up their ass.

But I digress.  Back to the bookstore lady.  As to which way she’d vote, it seems what she really wanted to know was when Bush was coming to Spring Hill.  I told her, “hey, there must be 70,000 one horse towns in the US. The President can’t come to them all.” I then wanted to know if his appearance was a factor in her decision; as if only by him being here would she vote for him.  I insisted this moron to stay at home, too.  The fickleness of these people makes me conclude they (and I repeat myself here) CAN NOT be trusted. 

By now I am fairly worked up about these morons and end up ranting with local friends and family about the patriotism of people who seem so dead-set on voting for Kerry.  I can’t figure it out and it grates on me.  I then become more vocal and fierce in my desire to not only expose The Poodle for the scumbag he is but to become a rabid and vocal advocate for our President.  Needless to say, there are some around here that are a bit uncomfortable near me at moments like those. 

At times like these I rightly deserve to be called “an angry young man.” My letters to the editor take a decided notch upwards in quantity and volume of rhetoric.  My blog posts are nastier.  I spend more time volunteering to put up signs, to driving people on neighborhood walks, and other little efforts.

Then, lo! and behold! rumors start flying about a possible appearance by the President to a location nearby.  Having experienced a false alarm about Kerry whom we had hoped would come so that we could harass the piss out of his supporters, I was skeptical. 

All this but a few days after these encounters with the jell-o brained. 

Imagine my surprise when I get a phone call asking me if I would like tickets to see President Bush who was coming to Pasco County (south of Hernando.)

“Hey, does a bear shit in the woods?” Of course I wanted tickets!

It was not much more than a day later that AlanS (a reader and commenter to this blog) calls me to work out some times to meet up and go put up some Bush/Cheney signs around the county.  He follows that up with asking me if I’d like some VIP tickets to the President’s visit.  “Damn, I think.  I oughta pinch myself to make sure this is really happening.” I told him “YES!!”

Next day we get together at the Republican HQs and he gives me my ticket.  I am ecstatic!!

A couple of days after that he calls me again and asks if I still had my “VIP” ticket.  I figured, “well, someone else must need these or has done more work than me for the party” and I told him I did and asked if he needed it back.  He said, “yes.”

You ever experience those moments when something happens in less than a second but you are capable of thinking several things through in that time frame?  Well, that is exactly what happened to me.

I no sooner began to start feeling a bit down in the mouth about having to go back to a general admission ticket when he adds, “we’re going to upgrade yours to “stage” passes!”

WOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  YEEEEEHAWWWWW!!!!

Boy howdy, was I psyched!!!!

So yesterday 5 of us got together at Alan’s house and headed out.  We’d heard traffic was already a bugger-bear and were expecting delays and horrid parking problems.  The closer we came the more we heard there was no handicapped parking nearby (as Alan is disabled.) We were then concerned we’d not be able to park remotely closely necessitating us dropping him off with one of us taking the truck, parking it and meeting up later in line.  He’d not brought a wheelchair figuring there’d be parking right close to the entrance. 

Even getting close was not possible as all roads were closed off.  Luckily he and his wife, Lynn, knew the owner of a gas station nearby and we were able to park there and he thought he could make it using his crutches as he normally gets around that way for shorter distances.  But we were faced with a good half mile!!!

So we got in this ENORMOUS line headed for the entrance.  Proving that God exists and mankind is capable of extraordinary feats of generosity, a lady from a church we passed by saw his dilemma (he’d never make it all the way) and loaned us a wheelchair solely on a promise by us to return it afterwards. So off he went with his wife to the head of the line while the rest of us stayed where we were and followed the crowd.  Nearby was a young lady with a message.

Standing on the left is one of our YRs.  We never got the other gal’s name.  Here is a close up of her message:

She never made it in, unfortunately as the rally did not allow anything against Kerry.  Guys with white t-shirts underneath their shirts were made to expose front and back just in case they tried to get “cute” by ripping off the outer shirt.  Hey, I can’t blame the crew doing this.  Had someone brought in an aniti-Kerry banner, shirt, etc. it would be the only things the scumbags in the media would focus on.

45 minutes later we navigated the security lines, went through the metal detectors, gave up all food and water bottles, gave up all pens and pencils, etc. and were allowed in.

By now it is HOT and the sun is merciless.  This IS Florida, right?  I am sweating like a pig.

We locate Alan and his wife and proceed around to the “special” area set aside for us.

There are those that say you make your own luck.  I tend to believe that a Higher Power opens the “luck” door for you. Afterwards you are on your own.  And that Higher Power smiled down upon us, let me tell you.  It turns out we were not ON the stage itself.  That was reserved for people like Congressmen and Senators and other religious and political big-wigs.  “Our” areas were bleachers set up to the right and left of the stage.  We almost went to the left but headed right, instead. I fetched chairs for Alan and Lynn while the rest of us climbed to the top to get good views.

A couple of musical acts warmed things up (not literally as our friend from 93,000,000 miles away was doing a good enough job of that.) The crowd was excited, waving banners, flags, pom-poms, etc. distributed by crews which were also doing a spectacular job of passing out water to the crowd.  The place was jumping.  The electricity was palpable.  People smiling, laughing, helping one another, courteous.  Eyes eagerly seeking to be the first to spot “The Man.” It was incredible.  The press says 7000 people showed up.  Hundreds more were left outside the gate, refused entrance because it was SRO.

Here’s a partial shot of the crowd.

Now, before we go any further, I’ll let you know I am an amateur photographer (with emphasis on amateur.) Being where I was did not give me warm fuzzies.

I was looking for “the shot.”

I was looking for “the chance.”

I was trying to make my own luck now. 

It was then that I fully comprehended how “Luck” smiled down on us.  I realized that had we been on the stage, my chances for good photos would be severely limited.  Had we gone to the bleachers on the “left side” of the stage, the sun would be in our eyes.  However, the “right side” bleachers did not have that problem and were divided from the general admission side by a walkway that police, secret service people, and volunteers were using.  The left side did not have that distinction.

BING!!!!!!!  The light goes off.  BAM!  It hits me.  I gotta move. NOW!!!

I tell my friends I am going back down and I made my way around to the walkway area I could not see from the top and realized this HAD to be the way the President was going to enter.  After all, it ended at a street.  I studied the other side--nothing.  No ropes, no walkways.  So I weaseled my way up next to the rail and waited.  And waited some more.

The President was due to arrive at 12.  Around eleven I saw a helicopter snooping around.  A roar erupted from the crowd.  They knew the time was fast approaching.  Then a bunch of busses show up-----the sleazehounds in the media.

Then the governor, Jeb Bush, shows up!!!!!!!! 

The crowd went nuts!!!!  My weaseling paid off.  I got a couple of photos.  The area was perfectly situated as a type of “runway” so I knew I’d be ready when The Big Guy came through.

Right afterwards, the man we all want to be our President for 4 more years shows up.

The place went CRAZY!!!!!! Bedlam in New Port Richey!!!!.  Chanting of “4 more years!” ERUPTS from the crowd.

I was like a kid in a candy store.  As he approached I stuck my hand out there and shook his!  Damn, was I surprised!  Sounds silly, right?  Getting all excited about shaking hands.  But this is the man who is the LEADER of the free world.  The PRESIDENT of the most powerful country on earth.  What is there NOT to get excited about?  The man does not dawdle. He made his way to the stage and it was a riot of sound and color from everywhere in that park. Awesome!!!

Here’s my “money” shot:

Then I set to shooting a bunch of pictures.  Found this one young lady with another great t-shirt.

I could not stand still.  The President was introduced and listening to him speak I realized, “You know, they’re right.  Hearing him in an environment like this and hearing him in a debate are two different things.” He was POWERFUL. He was ON TARGET. He SKEWEREDLurch several times. 

The President mentioned Kerry’s liberal record in the senate and no sooner did he say, “He (Kerry) can run...”..... than the crowd exploded with “BUT HE CAN’T HIDE!!!!” The President got this very transient look of surprise in his eyes at that response.  I guess he was not expecting the forcefulness of it.  Brother Jeb looked at brother Marvin and got this HUGE smile on HIS face.  The President HAMMERED HOME point after point on the economy, on terrorism, on healthcare, on social security, and foreign policy.

He barely looked down at notes.  Granted most of it was a stump speech but he tailors it for every audience and did so for us.  People hung on to his every word because we realized the perils this country will face if The Poodle gets elected.

And, OBTW, remember the long letter to the editor I posted the other day and sent to my paper?  It made it.  I found out about it when our congressman, who’d seen it, thanked me for having written it.  Sure made me feel good, let me tell ya!

Speaking of the press, here’s a picture of “The Enemy”

After what seemed like 10 minutes (but was actually close to an hour), the President made his departure.  First came brother Marvin (who one woman confused with Jeb (this IS Flori-DUH!), then came Jeb.  I shook his hand.  Damn!  Two in one day!

Then the President comes by one more time.  I could not help myself.  I stuck my arm out again, yelled out “Mr. President” and shook his hand one more time!  Remember when I posted this on the 17th---“If you had 5 seconds?”

It’s beginning to make sense now, eh?  You realize why I asked it.  I was setting you up on Monday for Tuesday.

Well, what I wanted to say was, “Mr. President, as a vet I want to thank you for YOUR service as President and as a Guard member.”

But the President does not dawdle when he works the crowd so all I got out was, “Thank you for your service, Mr. President.” Hey, better than nothing, right?

I stood there like a simpleton with a huge smile on my face as he made his way back to The Beast. This thing HAS to be the lap of luxury inside!!

You know, considering all that’s happened to me in 2004 I should check out my Chinese horoscope.  I have been blessed in 4 major ways so far.  (1) My son got married.  (2) I am now a grandfather.  (3) My father became a Republican.  (4) I shook hands with the President.

I don’t want to seem greedy but I would like one more: FOUR MORE YEARS!!!!

Please help us all accomplish that!!!  VOLUNTEER!! Take time to become part of the process.  Do it because your heart is in it not because you expect something for it. Do it because you feel good doing it.  Not just for yourself but your country.  People will notice.  Your efforts will be rewarded.  Deep thanks again to Alan and everyone else for looking out for me in this event.

I hope all my local friends see this and provide their “color commentary” on their impressions:  Alan, Lynn, Laurie, John, Jessica, Ana, Frank, Blake, Brooke, and Jim.  (if I missed anyone, sorry!!)

The Nail Screams (As It Is Pounded On The Head)

I’ve finally found in one essay all the points my mind has been boiling over with the past few weeks. 

PLEASE!! PLEASE!! PLEASE!! read this in its entirety.  If I just posted the link many of you would not go there (I know this to be a fact) so I cut and pasted it for you to read from this blog.

Having gone back to read not only the article below but other stuff, he is now on my daily read list.  He should be on yours, too!

It’s How You Play the Game Posted by Stephen Green · 14 October 2004

If Drudge has it right, then the Kerry-Edwards campaign is going to do its damnedest to turn our fine nation into a banana republic.

To these guys, winning office is more important than the sanctity of elections. Holding power is more important than the Constitution. Much as I despise at least half of what most Republicans stand for, they don’t seem nearly as willing to trash the system they’re trying to run. Too many Democrats, especially at the national level, just don’t care that our system, our nation is far more important than any single election.

I could mention the Lautenberg Trick in New Jersey. Or Gore’s ballot shenanigans in Florida. Or the voter-registration fraud currently going on in Colorado, Nevada, and elsewhere. Or the Democrats’ successful call to bring election observers into this country. Bring them in from where, Venezuela? Hey, no big deal sullying the reputation of the world’s oldest continuously-functioning democracy, just so long as we can make the Republicans look bad, right?

The rules don’t matter. The reputation of the country doesn’t matter. The political health of the nation doesn’t matter. Power matters.

I don’t mean to say that Republicans haven’t used dirty tricks, or won’t in the future. But I have yet to see them pull anything as crass as replacing a losing candidate with a more-popular one just weeks before election day, and in violation of state law. I have yet to see Republicans calling on the world’s most corrupt international organization, run largely by apparatchiks from the world’s most brutal dictatorships, to pass judgment on how we run our elections. I have yet to see the Republicans encouraging their own to commit fraud by shouting “Fraud!” where none yet exists, putting at risk everything we’ve built here in the last 228 years.

Because, in the end, that’s what the national Democrats are doing: They’re trying, however inadvertently, to destroy the Republic in order to rule it.

Democracy is the free market of political systems. And like any free market, it can’t function without some basic level of trust. That trust comes, slowly, from hammering out rules even competitors can live with. That trust comes, with difficulty, by honoring those rules, even when your candidate doesn’t win. That trust exists in relatively few places around the world.

That trust is hard to come by – and it’s easy to lose. Ask the German voters of 1933. Or the people who voted in Afghanistan’s first-ever presidential election last week. Or the people of Iraq, whose lives are, quite literally, on the line as they try to make something decent of their nation.

The system, the trust, is far more important than anything else. It’s more important than the White House, or Congress, or Social Security, or jobs, or even the Terror War. Our Constitution is rigged to make it hard for any party to screw things up in the short time of four years. There’s always another election around the corner, if you think the current crop of office-holders is screwing things up – that’s the beauty of our system.

But maybe there won’t be another election, if you cause the people to lose faith that elections work.

I was raised in a very Republican family. The first election I could vote in was 1988, and I voted straight-ticket Republican. But only the one time. I grew up – I learned that my own convictions were more important than party affiliation. I learned that my own estimation of individual candidates was more important than whether they had a D or an R next to their names. Since then, I’ve voted for a lot of Democrats, including for President.

Now, I know this is an angry essay. However, I don’t mean to imply that all Democrats are evil and all Republicans are sweetness and light. Far from it. But for the first time in 16 years, I’m going to vote Republican straight down the line. If I have to punish a couple of local Democrats I’m fond of, then so be it, but I have to try to get a point across: The national Democratic Party is bad for this country.

I don’t say that because of their policies, which I probably agree with more than I do the Republicans. But because their tactics would cause more harm to this country than the Federal Marriage Amendment, the Republican budget deficit, and Congress’s corporate tax giveaways, combined.

I’m just one guy; I don’t expect my vote to mean much. But the Democrats are willing to treat – in advance - my vote, and all it represents, with feigned contempt. So I can’t, in return, treat the Democrats with anything less than genuine contempt.

Vilmar’s New Voting Proposal (Part Deux)

A few days ago I wrote my most excellent treatise on the procedures I’d set in place for voting in the us.  You can read it here. 

As I mentioned, it was a bit incomplete so here are two other things I’d mandate:

1.  All provisional voting would be outlawed. If you are not where you belong on election day, none of this bullshit demanding a ballot from a precinct that is not yours.

2.  If you collect welfare and/or unemployment---nope, can’t vote.  You are already colecting largesse from the treasury.  You do not have the right to go and vote yourself more.

Vilmar’s New Voting Proposal

Unless you’ve lived under a rock the past few days you’ve heard about all this last-minute voter registration brouhaha and may also be concerned about its effects on the general election.  Not to mention the rapid degradation of civility as it relates to elections in recent years.

Me?  I’m worried about the entire scope of the actions by these 527 groups and the fact that most of them are taking place in counties run by and lived in predominantly by Democrats.  There are even reports of the NAACP going into jails and registering people.  Granted, as long as they are not felons that’s fine but given the actions of Fuckface’s supporters (violence, break-ins, shootings, etc.) I would not be surprised to read later on that a huge fraud was perpetrated by the NAACP at these jails.

Check out this article from the Palm Beach Post to get a feel for what I am talking about. 

In addition to the rules broken in this post from a couple of days ago we also have instances of hundreds if not thousands of registration forms collected months and months ago but ONLY NOW being dropped off, at the last minute, to purposely undermine the process and cause confusion and disruption at Supervisor of Elections Offices. This is done, no doubt, so that review of the forms becomes more lax.

We have hundreds of instances of incomplete forms with local lawmakers DEMANDING they be accepted anyway because the registrant’s “intent” was to fill it in.  Visions of hanging and dimpled chads, anyone?.

We even have many forms not even signed!!!!

Result?  Lots of these new voters may not receive their voter cards.  And do you think they will check before the elections to find out why they’ve received nothing back?  FUCK NO!!  They will wait until after the election and then file a lawsuit saying they were disenfranchised!!  Leading the way will be assholes like Representative Meeks, Jesse Jackson, the ACLU, the NAACP, Al Sharpton and all the other race baiters in this country (not to mention the “international monitors!!")

We HAVE to change the way we do business as it regards voting.  So my proposal is actually quite simple.  We roll back the clock and completely re-vamp election laws and take us back to rules in effect 30-40 years ago or more.  To wit:

1.  No more motor-voter bullshit.  If you are too fucking lazy to register correctly, you do not deserve to have a right to vote.  Get off your fat, lazy ass and get involved.  It’s YOUR country, fuckwad!  Take an interest in it.  It is not the responsibility of government to hold your hand and walk you through the process.

2. No more early voting. PERIOD.  You vote on the day of election and that’s that.  If you can’t make it, tough shit.  It’s not my problem and I should not pay higher taxes to fund an elections supervisor’s office with lots of people working in it to cater to your laziness by running ads, encouraging you to request absentee ballots and staffing said offices to run your fat-assed lazy ballot through the machinery, etc.

3. Absentee ballots?  Except for the infirm, elderly without means to arrive at polling stations or military, do away with them.  Hell, make it so that you need a note from a doctor (who will be liable for immediate revocation of his practice license if he falsifies the papers) stating a person can not appear at the polling station (bed bound, incapable of driving, etc.) Believe it or not there are people in mental health facilities registering the mentally infirm to vote!!!  You think these people have a clue?  Or will they check off what they are told by some over-zealous partisan hack (Dem or Rep?) If you have to be away on business---OOPS!!!  Too bad!  Make arrangements before hand with your elections supervisor.  Get called away at the last minute?  It’s not MY problem.  Nor should it be anyone else’s but yours.  If businesses honor federal holidays they can also halt business travel for one day.  They do not need to shut down--just suspend travel.  Hell, once every couple of years is not that high a price.

4.  ABSOLUTELY require social security card plus proof of ID (birth certificate from a US hospital or naturalization certificate otherwise) and a statement attesting to where you live (utility bills, rental contract, mortgage contract) to register to vote

5.  Require states to run those social security numbers to make sure the voter is not registered elsewhere in the US.  This will reduce the fraud of people living in one state, vacationing in another and then voting in both (one in person and the other by absentee.) Plus it helps keep tabs on the itinerant or criminal elements of our society.

6.  Require voters to show valid ID (not some stupid VISA card or college ID with a picture on it) before being allowed to vote.  This can be a driver’s license (or similar ID issued by the state in lieu of a license), a military ID, or a passport.

That’s it.  For now.  Until I make it even more difficult.

Hell, you may not like what I just said but what I’ve witnessed over the past few years is a process where certain people are trying to make it so easy to vote (because the citizenry is so apathetic) that fraud and misuse are rampant---and standard operating procedure.  I can not sit by idly and allow our system of government to become corrupted by those with agendas who would use illegal means to achieve their goals. (that goes for Dems and Reps) We all know that anything achieved easily and with little effort is easily scorned and not appreciated.  Is that what is happening to the voting process?  Changing it to make it a bit more difficult will “separate the wheat from the chaff” so to speak.  What you’d have left are those that truly believe in the process and will make the extra effort to vote because they would be the ones truly vested in assuring America’s future.  The lazy non-voters become nothing more than spectators in the process--as they should be.

As far as I am concerned, if people do not want to vote that is their right.  Personally I think they are irresponsible and abdicating their responsibilities as citizens but.........since they have a right to be stupid, why not this, too?

On the other hand, I see where those that DO vote will actually have a voice in what is going on and will not compete in a banana style republic system where millions get paid off for voting the way they do.  I need go no further than my county.  28 percent of the registered voters showed up for the primaries.  As you know, al that’s required is 50% plus 1 for someone to win.  So what we had was 14% (plus 1) of the general registered voter population making the decisions for the other 86% AND the rest of the county/state/country who are not registered or can not vote.  To me, THAT’S a strong voice.

Think of the advantages:

OK, now that I’ve pissed you off, tell me what’s wrong with my plan.  I just spent 30 minutes brain dumping and writing this so I probably overlooked a few things and there may be small segments of people I’ve missed but overall, I think it is a wonderful plan.

Then again, I AM the Benevolent Dictator!  I WOULD think that, wouldn’t I?

DO YOU KNOW WHAT LOSING WILL MEAN?

The following was written by someone whose identity I wish I knew so I could credit him/her.  It’s long but helps explain what we are doing and why we need to keep doing it.

******************************************************

To get out of a difficulty, one usually must go through it. Our country is now facing the most serious threat to its existence, as we know it, that we have faced in your lifetime and mine (which includes WWII).

The deadly seriousness is greatly compounded by the fact that there are very few of us who think we can possibly lose this war and even fewer who realize what losing really means.

First, let’s examine a few basics:

1. When did the threat to us start?  Many will say September 11th, 2001.  The answer as far as the United States is concerned is 1979, 22 years prior to September 2001, with the following attacks on us:  Iran Embassy Hostages, 1979; Beirut, Lebanon Embassy 1983; Beirut, Lebanon Marine Barracks 1983; Lockerbie, Scotland Pan-Am flight to New York 1988; First New York World Trade Center attack 1993; Dhahran, Saudi Arabia Khobar Towers Military complex 1996; Nairobi, Kenya US Embassy 1998; Dar es Salaam, Tanzania US Embassy 1998; Aden, Yemen USS Cole 2000; New York World Trade Center 2001; Pentagon 2001.  (Note that during the period from 1981 to 2001 there were 7,581 terrorist attacks worldwide).

2. Why were we attacked? Envy of our position, our success, and our freedoms.  The attacks happened during the administrations of Presidents Carter, Reagan, Bush 1, Clinton and Bush 2.  We cannot fault either the Republicans or Democrats as there were no provocations by any of the presidents or their immediate predecessors, Presidents Ford or Carter.

3. Who were the attackers?  In each case, the attacks on the US were carried out by Muslims.

4. What is the Muslim population of the World? 25%

5. Isn’t the Muslim Religion peaceful?  Hopefully, but that is really not material.  There is no doubt that the predominately Christian population of Germany was peaceful, but under the dictatorial leadership of Hitler (who was also Christian), that made no difference.  You either went along with the administration or you were eliminated.  There were 5 to 6 million Christians killed by the Nazis for political reasons (including 7,000 Polish priests). (see here) Thus, almost the same number of Christians were killed by the Nazis, as the 6 million holocaust Jews who were killed by them, and we seldom heard of anything other than the Jewish atrocities.  Although Hitler kept the world focused on the Jews, he had no hesitancy about killing anyone who got in his way of exterminating the Jews or of taking over the world - German, Christian or any others.  Same with the Muslim terrorists.  They focus the world on the US, but kill all in the way - their own people or the Spanish, French or anyone else..  The point here is that just like the peaceful Germans were of no protection to anyone from the Nazis, no matter how many peaceful Muslims there may be, they are no protection for us from the terrorist Muslim leaders and what they are fanatically bent on doing - by their own pronouncements - killing all of us “infidels”.  I don’t blame the peaceful Muslims.  What would you do if the choice was shut up or die?

6. So who are we at war with?  There is no way we can honestly respond that it is anyone other than the Muslim terrorists.  Trying to be politically correct and avoid verbalizing this conclusion can well be fatal.  There is no way to win if you don’t clearly recognize and articulate who you are fighting.

So with that background, now to the two major questions: 

1. Can we lose this war?
2. What does losing really mean?

If we are to win, we must clearly answer these two pivotal questions.

We can definitely lose this war, and as anomalous as it may sound, the major reason we can lose is that so many of us simply do not fathom the answer to the second question - What does losing mean? It would appear that a great many of us think that losing the war means hanging our heads, bringing the troops home and going on about our business, like post Vietnam. This is as far from the truth as one can get. What losing really means is:

We would no longer be the premier country in the world. The attacks will not subside, but rather will steadily increase. Remember, they want us dead, not just quiet.  If they had just wanted us quiet, they would not have produced an increasing series of attacks against us over the past 18 years. The plan was clearly to terrorist attack us until we were neutered and submissive to them.

We would of course have no future support from other nations for fear of reprisals and for the reason that they would see we are impotent and cannot help them.

They will pick off the other non-Muslim nations, one at a time. It will be increasingly easier for them.  They already hold Spain hostage. It doesn’t matter whether it was right or wrong for Spain to withdraw its troops from Iraq. Spain did it because the Muslim terrorists bombed their train and told them to withdraw the troops. Anything else they want Spain to do, will be done. Spain is finished.

The next will probably be France. Our one hope on France is that they might see the light and realize that if we don’t win, they are finished too, in that they can’t resist the Muslim terrorists without us. However, it may already be too late for France. France is already 20% Muslim and fading fast.

If we lose the war, our production, income, exports and way of life will all vanish as we know it. After losing, who would trade or deal with us if they were threatened by the Muslims. If we can’t stop the Muslims, how could anyone else? The Muslims fully know what is riding on this war and therefore are completely committed to winning at any cost. We better know it too and be likewise committed to winning at any cost.

Why do I go on at such lengths about the results of losing? Simple. Until we recognize the costs of losing, we cannot unite and really put 100% of our thoughts and efforts into winning.  And it is going to take that 100% effort to win.

So, how can we lose the war? Again, the answer is simple. We can lose the war by imploding. That is, defeating ourselves by refusing to recognize the enemy and their purpose and really digging in and lending full support to the war effort. If we are united, there is no way that we can lose.  If we continue to be divided, there is no way that we can win.

Let me give you a few examples of how we simply don’t comprehend the life and death seriousness of this situation.

- President Bush selects Norman Mineta as Secretary of Transportation. Although all of the terrorist attacks were committed by Muslim men between 17 and 40 years of age, Secretary Mineta refuses to allow profiling. Does that sound like we are taking this thing seriously? This is war. For the duration we are going to have to give up some of the civil rights we have become accustomed to. We had better be prepared to lose some of our civil rights temporarily or we will most certainly lose all of them permanently.

And don’t worry that it is a slippery slope. We gave up plenty of civil rights during WWII and immediately restored them after the victory and in fact added many more since then. Do I blame President Bush or President Clinton before him? No, I blame us for blithely assuming we can maintain all of our Political Correctness and all of our civil rights during this conflict and have a clean, lawful, honorable war. None of those words apply to war. Get them out of your head.

- Some have gone so far in their criticism of the war and/or the Administration that it almost seems they would literally like to see us lose. I hasten to add that this isn’t because they are disloyal. It is because they just don’t recognize what losing means. Nevertheless, that conduct gives the impression to the enemy that we are divided and weakening, it concerns our friends, and it does great damage to our cause.

- Of more recent vintage, the uproar fueled by the politicians and media regarding the treatment of some prisoners of war perhaps exemplifies best what I am saying. We have recently had an issue involving the treatment of a few Muslim prisoners of war by a small group of our military police. These are the type prisoners who just a few months ago were throwing their own people off buildings, cutting off their hands, cutting out their tongues and otherwise murdering their own people just for disagreeing with Saddam Hussein. And just a few years ago these same type prisoners chemically killed 400,000 of their own people for the same reason. They are also the same type enemy fighters who recently were burning Americans and dragging their charred corpses through the streets of Iraq. And still more recently the same type enemy that was and is providing videos to all news sources internationally, of the beheading of American prisoners they held. Compare this with some of our press and politicians who for several days have thought and talked about nothing else but the “humiliating” of some Muslim prisoners - not burning them, not dragging their charred corpses through the streets, not beheading them, but “humiliating” them. Can this be for real? The politicians and pundits have even talked of impeachment of the Secretary of Defense. If this doesn’t show the complete lack of comprehension and understanding of the seriousness of the enemy we are fighting, the life and death struggle we are in and the disastrous results of losing this war, nothing can. To bring our country to a virtual political standstill over this prisoner issue makes us look like Nero playing his fiddle as Rome burned - totally oblivious to what is going on in the real world.  Neither we, nor any other country, can survive this internal strife.

Again I say, this does not mean that some of our politicians or media people are disloyal.  It simply means that they absolutely oblivious to the magnitude of the situation we are in and into which the Muslim terrorists have been pushing us for many years.  Remember, the Muslim terrorists stated goal is to kill all infidels!  That translates into all non-Muslims - not just in the United States, but throughout the world.  We are the last bastion of defense.

- We have been criticized for many years as being ‘arrogant’. That charge is valid in at least one respect.  We are arrogant in that we believe that we are so good, powerful and smart, that we can win the hearts and minds of all those who attack us, and that with both hands tied behind our back, we can defeat anything bad in the world. 

We can’t. If we don’t recognize this, our nation as we know it will not survive, and no other free country in the World will survive if we are defeated.  And finally, name any Muslim countries throughout the world that allow freedom of speech, freedom of thought, freedom of religion, freedom of the Press, equal rights for anyone - let alone everyone, equal status or any status for women, or that have been productive in one single way that contributes to the good of the world.

This has been a long way of saying that we must be united on this war or we will be equated in the history books to the self-inflicted fall of the Roman Empire.  If, that is, the Muslim leaders will allow history books to be written or read.

If we don’t win this war right now, keep a close eye on how the Muslims take over France in the next 5 years or less.  They will continue to increase the Muslim population of France and continue to encroach little by ! little on the established French traditions. The French will be fighting among themselves over what should or should not be done, which will continue to weaken them and keep them from any united resolve. Doesn’t that sound eerily familiar?

Democracies don’t have their freedoms taken away from them by some external military force. Instead, they give their freedoms away, politically correct piece by politically correct piece. And they are giving those freedoms away to those who have shown, worldwide, that they abhor freedom and will not apply it to you or even to themselves, once they are in power. They have universally shown that when they have taken over, they then start brutally killing each other over who will be the few who control the masses. Will we ever stop hearing from the politically correct, about the “peaceful Muslims”?

I close on a hopeful note, by repeating what I said above. If we are united, there is no way that we can lose. I believe that after the election, the factions in our country will begin to focus on the critical situation we are in and will unite to save our country. It is your future we are talking about. Do whatever you can to preserve it.

A Win For Gun Owners!!

Finally!  Common Sense Prevails!

Congress has just passed a bill allowing residents of D.C. to own guns.  As you may recall guns were banned some time ago but given that the law was crappily written, the borders (Virginia, Maryland, etc.) porous, AND it violates 2nd Amendment rights, Congress took action.

Of course, the Dems are saying it is election year posturing.  (so what?  They do it, too.  FUCK ‘EM!)

To illustrate the stupidity of gun grabbers’ aversion to average citizenry being allowed to defend themselves (this IS D.C. after all!) Eleanor Holmes Norton, a nonvoting delegate to the House, said:

“the homicide rate in Washington is approaching a 20-year low, but the rate is rising among juveniles.”

My reply:  hey you stupid bitch-faced FORON!!!! The reason crime is down and homicide rates went with them is because the homies comitting them are in jail and will stay there a while.  The reason homicide rates are increasing among juveniles is that they are growing up and we’ve not put their felonious asses in jail yet!  Until then, innocent citizens should be able to own whatever they need to defend themselves against these gang-banging, drug dealing, pimping assholes.

National Ammo Week

Kim du Toit is fed up with the gun grabbers and has proposed a National Ammo Week, November 13-20th.

I’ll be buying several hundred rounds.

Read about it here. Then log in to his site (if you read us you should read him daily, too, and ALREADY be a registered commenter!  and let him know how many hundreds of rounds YOU are going to buy.  (Dottie, I’ll buy 100 in your name!)

Speaking of which, anyone know good online sites that sell good ammo at great (cheap) prices?

Letter To Our Enemies

I found this on Kim du Toit’s site which had it linked back to Horsefeathers’ site.

I couldn’t have said it better!  But then again, according to Allan, I am (correctly) the guy with the chain-saw.  I operate at a visceral level and struggle to come up with the right words to use as finesse is not my forte.

Since this came out the folks at Horsefeathers said the author contacted them to grant permission.  I wrote him for permission to post it and his response elicited a HUGE belly laugh:

Feel free to post it.  And, glad to know of your blog.  I will bookmark it as soon as I get home...to my computer...where I bookmark things....and drink...and polish my .45...and wait…

Contact the author at: kozloffm@uncw.edu and let him know what you think.

I’m an ordinary American. Wife (whom I love and respect), 2 kids (to whom I would give both of my kidneys), 2 cars (ten years old), big mortgage, and a job not always pleasurable.

I’ve worked hard all my adult life to provide for my family, to be useful, and not go out of my way to injure anyone. Like most Americans, I knew little about arab-muslim culture and believed that the developed nations were partly responsible for the poverty and authoritarian regimes that infest the middle east.

Things changed on 9/11/01 when you ruined the lives of at least 10,000 Americans.

These people instantly became my countrymen and you became my mortal enemy.

Ordinary Americans are arming themselves for war with you. I and many of my friends have closets full of handguns, rifles, shotguns and thousands of cartridges.

If we had enough ammunition and time, we would kill every last one of you.

We completely support our President and our armed forces. We only wish they would destroy you faster, but we are certain that they will.

We no longer listen to the insane words of Kerry, Harkin, Kennedy, Clark, and others whom we now see as ideologues who would sacrifice our country and our
lives on the alter of their vanity and desire for power.

We no longer listen to our secular mullahs, our media fools, preaching hatred of America and sapping our will with their lies and deceptions.

We watch your cowardly methods of killing by beheading. We are disgusted. But we are not afraid.

You turn your women and children into walking bombs. We are disgusted. But we are not afraid.

You shoot and rape children. You kill their mothers before their eyes. You burn, hang, and tear apart the bodies of your victims, and then play with body parts. We are disgusted. But we are not afraid.

Why should we fear you? What ARE you to be feared? You are cowards. Your bravado is a clown mask that hides the soul of a ghoul. You are not able even to manufacture the knives you use to butcher your bound victims.

Go here to finish this and read how he proposes we “solve” this.  It would not be right for me to publish this in its entirety without properly linking back to the original site.  So pay them a visit.  Let them know how much you appreciate this letter by leaving a comment.

Vilmar’s Latest Excellent Adventures

This ought to get your blood boiling.

Last night a bunch of us Republicans went out to exercise our First Amendment right to free speech (and free assembly) in front of the local Democratic Headquarters.

We’ve done this before and most of the local Dems take it in the spirit that it is given and exchange points of view with us.  We don’t cuss them out, we don’t physically challenge them, we don’t molest them, we do not go on their property, we do not approach nor do we intimidate them (or so I thought until last night.)

We had a couple of huge honkin’ Bush/Cheney signs (4 foot by 8 foot), and a bunch of smaller signs.  We stood at the entrance of the road leading to the Dem Hq and held up our signs and yelled things like “4 more years!”; “Who’s in the White House?  Bush!  Bush!  Bush!!”: “Don’t be a girlie man!  Vote Bush”; “Flip-Flop” and other stuff directed at Kerry.  Plus we made donkey noises. (those were fun!)

This went on for about 45 minutes as the Dems made their way to their HQ to listen to some geek from Kerry’s campaign talk to them.  (Note:  let me tell you, if the size of the crowd was any indication, Kerry is in a shit load of trouble.  I counted no more than 20 or so cars there.)

Then a goon came out of their HQ and stood there staring at us.  Then a couple of other goons came out.  Then Number 1 goon pulls out a cell phone.  We continue to taunt them (visions of Monty Python come to mind), never getting closer than 50 or so feet to the entrance of their building (where they were.) One of the other goons shouts at us to stick it up our bullhorn and walks across the street and through the parking lot of this medical building (where we were standing.) We figure he’s leaving but he walks into the building.  I think, “maybe he’s checking in on his illicit lover.  After all, he IS a democrat!” Then he leaves.  Instead of driving out of the parking lot in the proper direction, he backs out, away from us, and unto the main highway.  I was suddenly reminded of Kerry throwing his swiftboat into reverse and fleeing the scene during a gunfight necessitating his return to pick up that Rasmussen fellow who fell overboard or whatever.  The operant picture here is fleeing in reverse---just like Fuckface.

8 PM rolls around and we decide, since that’s when their meeting was to begin, that we should leave.  Plus it was dark and becoming pointless to be out there if they were all inside.

That’s when the fun began. A cop car pulls up.  He goes to talk to goon number 1.  We figure, “hmmmm, what’s up with the cop?  We have a right to be here.” I went to several of the guys and said that we should not leave.  At least not while the cop is here.  It would be a sign of weakness. 

We stay. 

We watch. 

The cop gets in his car and we think it’s all over.  Not quite.  He’s calling for backup.

Meanwhile this other assclown drives into aforementioned medical building’s parking lot, IDs himself as some sort of building supervisor and begins to tell us this is private property and did we ask permission to use it.  (Mystery solved about the reverse driving assclown.  He’s one of the owners of the place and called this stupidvisor guy.) We all look at each other and know that between the street and the parking lot, the county owns 15 feet right of way.  So we go there.  I shout out to him, “hey!!!  Do these cars (referring to the Democrats’ cars) have permission to be in your lot?  Did they ask?” You know the answer, right?  He backs out, too!  Must be a Democrat thing.

Meanwhile, the cop is still there.  Somewhere in between all this we break into song and belt out America the Beautiful.

By now, number 2 cop shows up--a Sergeant.  OOOOOHHH!!!  We’re scared now.  Both cops talk to goon 1 and we continue to verbally taunt the Dems.  I make chicken noises.  I also meow like a cat in the hopes they will figure out I am indicating they are a bunch of pussies for calling the cops.  I make jackass noises.  (far be it from me to blow my own horn but I do a fine impersonation of all these critters!!)

The cops come over to talk to us and say that they were called because the Dummycrap women were feeling “threatened” and “intimidated!” Now ain’t that a bunch of pussified shit?  The head cop tells us we can do our thing when men are there but to refrain when women are as it could be construed a threat or disturbance of peace. 

I don’t know about you but I am not sure how that can be with women but not with men.  I asked the cop what we should do if a man AND woman show up together?  Could we taunt them, then?  Or does the mere presence of a woman stifle my ability to free speech?

Hey, the cops were doing THEIR job and I have nothing against them.  They were trying to maintain the peace.  They have to deal with jackasses all day and we were not about to make their lives miserable by harassing them.  I could never be a cop.  I’d get kicked out for “overuse of the nightstick” phenomena!  hehehehe

By then, it was REAL dark and our purpose had been served so we left.

But not quietly.

I walk away yelling, (cue Monty Python again) “HELP!  HELP!  I’m being oppressed!”

Ya know, I’m tempted to call the sheriff to get his take on this.  Maybe even a lawyer.  What the cop said sounds like it was said more to defuse the situation than an actual point of law given WHAT we were saying.  Making general political comments somehow does not fit into my definition of intimidation or threat.

I AM however, looking forward to the next protest.  We should do the same thing we did last night and if I have my way, we should ignore the cop’s “guidance” from last night, too.  I just can’t see anyone being arrested for doing what we did but if we DID get arrested we should then threaten to sue the Democratic party for harassment, false imprisonment, defamation etc.  I’d like to see anyone prove a case where saying things like, “4 more years” is considered threatening.

All in all, isn’t it typical of dems to pull this shit?  Soon as things don’t go like they want, they begin to act like petulant children yelling for their mommy.  They go crying to the police to protect them because they do not know how to defend themselves.  They are morally, ethically, logically and intellectually bankrupt.  After all, they support Kerry, right?  And he speaks French.  And the French have never really won any wars, have they?  But they DO know how to surrender!!

P.S.  I hope someone has contacts in the Dem party who reads this blog and forwards this to the local Dem Executive Committee Chairman.  (for all I know, it could have been goon #1 from last night!)

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
